Local Government Committee Report
The report into the Scottish Government’s call in of the Menie application makes interesting reading.
Of Alex Salmond the reports says
“The committee believes that, far from taking a precautionary approach, the first minister was cavalier in his actions and displayed, at best, exceptionally poor judgement and a worrying lack of awareness about the consequence of his actions,”
Of John Swwnney
“It is clear that the application was called in because of the decision to refuse. … It is the view of the Committee that the Cabinet Secretary acted inappropriately and potentially opened his decision to legal challenge.”
